THK OBWUmTTTS HERALD, FEBRUARY 7, 1000. T H E C E D A R V I L L E H E R A L D KABLH BULL — — EDITOR AND PUBLISHER Entered * t the Poet Office, Cedarville, Ohio, October 31 , 1887, as aecond dasa matter, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1930 . i SOMETH ING TQ REMEMBER If our tax laws were created and administered wuh The in­ tention of assessing every individual and business organization on an, equitable basis, there would be no tax problem. This problem now confronts Ohio property owners. 4t is when taxes are levied in a discriminatory or unequal manner against certain types o f individuals or businesses, in order to benefit others, that taxation becomes a problem of great economic and social import. The Boston tea party resulted from unfair taxation. Such taxation can make or break the greatest nation. M AN Y LIVES LOST IN FIRES Have you noticed lately what seems to be an increase in the number of persons who loose their lives in fires? You read such stories every day or so but do you ever stop to consider whether such disaster might come in your own home, probably by negligence?' These fires are not.all in public buildings but very frequently in homes. This is hard to understand when by careful observation most every home owner can prevent fires, Careful examination of flues and smoke pipes will prevent a fire. Often times fire comes from careless use of oil or gasoline. The life hazard would be greatly reduced and the home made comparatively safe if more caution were used. ; THE COUNTRY NEWSPAPER The country newspaper is becoming more and more a com­ munity newspaper—the community in the sense that towns and smaller cities from one to five thousand population are gradu­ ally spreading into the rural regions. ] The rural and interurban population have so much in com- •mon, with the telephone, rural mail, parcel post and better highways, that they are more like one big neighborhood. More farmers are building homes in towns and smaller cities to give their'children the advantages of high schools, colleges and business opportunities. • In all lines o f’ social development the community news­ paper is playing its part and is becoming a more valuable prop­ erty from an advertising standpoint and as a leading factor in the cooperative growth of city and country., ANOTHER CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION It has been proposed to hold another Constitutional Con­ vention In Ohio in 19S2. The Ohio Chamber of Commerce has announced that it will not go on record at this time favoring such a convention, awaitiilg more definite data. It was only last November that Ohio voted for classification of property for. taxation. With a demand for a Constitutional Convention two years away it appears that public and private interests are to be juggled one way or another for at least two more years. In some quarters it is being advocated that the next legislature ignore the classification plan until a Constitu­ tional Convention can be held. There is also a demand that an­ other referendum election be held for another vote on classifica­ tion. with the view o f recindxng the last vote and remaining as we are. Still many hold to the view that the last election was not a fair test pf sentiment and if the election were held this year or next, classification would be defeated. The -unfortunate thing is that this controversy over tax matters is to drag along for many months keeping people dis­ turbed and business interests unsettled* fearing to adopt a fixed policy for the future. Owner Ignorant o f Value o f Saw Logs Much Timber Sold From Farm W ood* At Less Than Its W orth To Buyer Much timber is marketed from the farm woods o f Ohio with little idea in the mind o f the owners o f its real value of the product, according to F, W, Dean, extension forester fo r the Ohio State University. Saw logs, Dean points out, are the most im­ portant item from which the farm wood income is derived, when timber is sold. And there is very great un­ certainty and ignorance about the measurement o f the board foot con­ tent o f saw logs. The scale which has been used in Ohio for many years, called the Doyle, Doyle-Scribner, or Buckeye log rule, gives two sets o f results, both of them incorrect, when applied to large logs and when applied to small logs, Dean says. All other agricultural commo­ dities, as well as manufactured pro­ ducts, are marketed with an accurate knowledge o f their volume, and Dean believes more accurate measurements should be applied to the timber pro­ ducts. . “ One o f the chief difficulties with the Doyle rule is that it is based upon a formula which allows too much for slabs from small logs and too little for slabs from .large logs,” says Dean “ Consequently, small logs from eight to '20 inches in diameter, yield from 50 to 150 per cent more board feet o f lumber, .than the scale shows. Large logs, 30 to 40 inches through, yield decidedly less lumber than the scale -calls for. The Doyle rule was fairly accurate when applied to the virgin forests where the saw logs were o f a size larger than those usually cut now. Today a large percentage of the saw logs taken from second growth timber arc less then 20 inches in diameter, and the rule is not accurate when ap­ plied to these logs.” , . DELIQUENT TA XES CAUSE ALARM . . From information we gather the list of delinquent tax-pay- era in Greene County will be no larger than probably last year, As we scan the pages of newspapers in some of our adjoining counties where from four to eight and ten pages of delinquent property is advertised, we are convinced that Greene county -is-not in as tight financial tangle as some of our neighbors. The list does not apply altogether to farm property but especially to city property. In one county we have noticed where two daily papers have been appealing to.the public to pay their taxes with editorials on the first page. This is an unusual situation and all branches of government, in these counties must suffer for the want of sufficient funds to function" as in the past. Economic conditions at present are not the best. They are not as had as has been experienced in years past but the public mind just at present is concentrated probably more on public expenditures, which is a warning to those seeking new solutions for our tax problems to use extra care and not take a very radical step. Moreover the present is not a very good time for many fads, fancies or frills in connection with extracting tax money from the public. In highly prosperous times with money available to all classes not much attention is paid as to how pub­ lic money is spent. The opposite is true at this time because the public has more time to give serious consideration to public affairs. ' CAN BE CURED § HEMORRHOIDS (OR FILES) .

Sanita­ tion is one o f the keys to protection which helps to reduce the. dinount ol cure work necessary lath in the sea­ son. Bacterial spot control calls‘ for the disinfection o f. the seed before plant ing, in a solution o f bichloride o f mer­ cury. The beds where the seedlings are grown should be supplied with soil in which tomatoes have .been grown for several years. When the plants are set otft, they should go into a field which has not grown tomatoes for at least two years. Spraying and dusting help control the disease in the field. • Control measures fo r early and late blight are very similar. One o f them is spraying or scrubbing with a dilute formaldehyde solution, all boards, flats, and stakes previously used in growing tomatoes. While in the seed bed the. plants should be sprayed or dusted with. Bordeaux or copper lime dust from the time the first, true leaves are formed. A two year rotation should be used. . Prevention is the only solution for virus diseases, o f which the causes are unknown. Since the diseases are car­ ried by aphids, fumigation o f plant beds and hotbeds is a desirable pre caution. 1 Says Sam: There are these consola- tions about life: it can’t last forever, and on the other hand, it isn’t so at­ tractive that it doesn’t last long en­ ough.

WILLIAM ARNDT “ Konjola turned out to be the best investment I have ever made,” said Mrs. William Arndt, 3952 West 224th street, Cleveland. “ I had spent, or rather wasted, many a dollar trying to find relief from indigestion and its pains, but nothihg helped me. I was so sick ‘ and miserable all over that I. did not care much whether I lived or not. My system waB completely run­ down, and I was weak and tired out all the time. “ Fortunately the many Indorsements that I read o f Konjola leif me’ to try this- medicine. To my astonishment I began to feel better within a week* In two weeks I gained ten pounds. My digestion improved rapidly, and I was stimulated and invigorated 'generally. After a six Week’s treatment, 1 am feeling better than for many years. All this splendid: health I owe to Kon­ jola, and I indorse it with all my heart.!’ Konjola is so ld . in Cedarville at Prowant & Brown drug store, and by all the best druggists , in all towns throughout this entire section.' LETTER TO THE EDITOR I was handed a copy o f your paper last Saturday containing - editorial reference to the condition o f the Springfield pike and wish to extend thanks to any paper that 'can come forward and condemn such a system o f road building that is a wanton waste o f money, largely contributed by motor car owners. Property owners that reside in a city or village are consulted and given an •opportunity o f expressing them­ selves on the type o f street to be put down, Whether bricky cement or asphalt. In the country neither the land owner or the automobile owner can have a say, unless as you say at the polls on election day to register a negative vote against those who have not built the kind o f a road that would prove worthy of the investment. Clark county last year did this very th ng in 'the election o f county com­ missioners that could pay more for gravel on roads than stone would cost. The experiment has been costly*but should stand as a guiding post to offi­ cials o f a ir counties—that gravel on our main roads is out o f place. I often wonder jf public officials are acquainted with the famous poem of Edgar Guest in reference to gravel roads—“ Taking them up and Putting them Down.1’ It is well that Guest wrote his versa.before the Springfield pike was improved with tar and gravel* What a contrast this road gives with the three miles o f fine stone macadam, tar hound 'as you enter Springfield. It has been down a number o f years;, had little repair and yet will outwear ten such roads as can be built o f gravel. Springfield Salesman. SPECTACULAR FILM COMES TO SPRINGFIELD SOON The most pretentious parade o f pul­ chritude ever produced for the edifica­ tion of picture patrons will be seen and heard at the Regent Theatre, Springfield fo r one week starting Feb­ ruary 8th, when Florenz Ziegfeld’s “ Glorifying the American Girl” comes there. With most o f its spectacle photo­ graphed by the improved Technicolor Process, this film is one o f the biggest eye and ear entertainments to be. pro­ jected on the screen since talking-pic­ tures became one o f the staples o f life. 1 Ziegfeld himself personally super­ vised the production. Mary Eaton, star of many a Ziegfeld stage show on Broadway, Is the leading lady. The story shows' how she, as a tank down nobody, gains success on the New York stage, after many trials and heartbreaks. There is romance, comedy and excitement in this inoving tale of the. great while way. Dan Healy, him­ self a famous Broadway dancer, Kaye Renurd, song and dance girl o f great renown, ar.d Olive Shea, recently selected as Miss Radio-of 1929 in the big New York radio show, are cast in support o f Miss Eaton.

Concerning Censorious .Judgment! (w , 1-12). b The slirtmd fully of (vy, 1-5), This prohibition should not be so construed us to forbid our making an estimate of the lives of those about us, for “ by their fruits ye shall know them." Neither should It prevent us from administering rel uke to those who deserve it. It Is not wrong to con­ demn the errors and faults o f those who are In the way of sin. It does not mean that sin should go unrebuked until we ourselves are perfect It re­ bukes readiness' to blame others and to magnify their weakness and error. 2. The duty of discrimination In dealing out holy things (v.6>. The, Gospel should be preached to all. vye should turn from those who reject and treat with contempt the Gospel message. 3. Qualification for discrimination (vv. 7-12). ' ^ (1) A life o f pruyer (vv. 7-11). Only those are- able to rightly divide the word of truth who live a life of prayer. (2) A disposition to treat others as one would he treated (v. 12). It Is not merely to refrain from doing Injury,* but positively ,to - do for others that which w;e would desire to have done unto ourselves under similar circum­ stances. No man can live thiB rule un­ less he has been born from above and abides with Christ: II, Entrance. Into the Kingdom Urged (vv. 13,14). i There are two ways only before each one—life and death, heaven and hell. The narrow .gate Is the way of life. While the gate Is strait and the way narrow. It Is an open gate end the ouiy gate to life, and all are in­ vited to enter, The gate which opens to .every good thing In life Is stra it- restricted, The way of Jesus Christ Is noi the way of the crowd. lit. Warnings Against False Teach- ere. (vv. 15-20), 1. Their real existence (v. 15). Ever; since God has had a people, false prophets and teachers have ap-- peared among them. . , r 2. Their, nature (y. 15). (1) They are hypocritical. The devil ddes his most successful work by masquerading as an angel of light (II Cor, 11:14,15). His ministers ap­ pear In this way and turn people frojn the narrow to the broad way, (2) They are destructive. This ts suggested by their being ravening wolves.

The unfailing test (vv, 10-18). .“By their fruits ye shall know them." Every tree bears Us own kind of fruit. One may search the universe In vain, for an exception to thlB rule. It Is equally true in the spiritual world —there Is a vital connection between faith of heart .and fruit of the life, 4. Their ultimate end (v.19). Although God has Infinite patience and bears long. He will see to It that this evil work does not go on forever, IV. The Dangers of Empty Profes­ sion (vv. 21-23). 1. Merely calling Christ Lord will not answer, for doing hIS will (v.21). 2. One may do supernatural works and not be saved (vv. 22,23). Not all supernatural worlds are divine. There Is a supernatural world of evil. It Is the- business of every be­ liever to test the Spirit (I John 4 :1 ,2 ). ' 3. Separation from God (v. 23). One may have been a Sunday school teacher or a minister and have per­ formed many mighty works and yet heat from Christ the awful words, “ I never knew you; depart from Me." V, The One and Only Safe Way (VV. 24-29). 1. Hear the sayings of Christ (v. 24), To do this one must give attention t« reading the Word o f God. 2, Do what Christ commands (vv.24- 26), Hearing and doing the teachings of Christ is building upon solid rock. Hearing and not tiffing Christ’s sayings Is t6 build' upon the sand.
